FC BATE Borisov host Group H rivals FC Viktoria Plzeň on matchday five seeking a victory that would earn them continued European football in the new year. • BATE's 1-1 home draw with AC Milan last time out lifted them a point above Plzeň at the foot of the table and means they can secure third place, and entry into the UEFA Europa League, by recording what would be their first win in the UEFA Champions League against the Czech title holders. • Tournament newcomers Plzeň's only point to date came from their earlier encounter with BATE in Prague and they will be equally determined to get a victory with a UEFA Europa League place at stake. Previous meetings • When Plzeň and BATE drew 1-1 on matchday one, it was the first time each had faced opponents from Belarus and the Czech Republic respectively. • There had been ten games played previously between sides from the two nations over the course of five two-legged ties, with five Czech victories and three by Belarusian clubs. • The Belarusian teams' home record in five games against Czech opponents reads W2 D1 L2. Match background • Viktor Goncharenko's BATE will draw confidence from having held Milan on matchday four. Although they went down 5-0 to FC Barcelona in their first Group H fixture at the Dinamo Stadion, that is their only defeat in five European home outings this season, qualifying rounds included. In last term's UEFA Europa League, they lost only one in seven at home. • Plzeň have lost both away games in Group H – at Milan, then Barcelona – by the same 2-0 scoreline but they did win all three matches on the road in the qualifying rounds. • Plzeň are playing in the group stage of a UEFA club competition for the first time and prior to this season had only played two away fixtures in Europe – one against FC Bayern München in the 1971/72 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, the other against Beşiktaş JK in the 2010/11 UEFA Europa League. They lost both. Team ties • Viktoria coach Pavel Vrba met Belarusian opponents while in charge of Slovakia's MŠK Žilina in 2008, taking on FC MTZ-RIPO Minsk (now FC Partizan Minsk) in the UEFA Cup first qualifying round. The sides drew 2-2 in Minsk but Žilina prevailed 1-0 in the return fixture. BATE's Maksim Bordachev and Artyom Kontsevoi played in both legs for MTZ-RIPO. • Kontsevoi scored for MTZ-RIPO Minsk in a 2005/06 UEFA Cup second qualifying round tie against FK Teplice – he was on target in a 1-1 home draw but his team lost the tie 3-2 on aggregate. • BATE defender Yegor Filipenko scored Belarus's winner against the Czech Republic in the third-place play-off at this summer's UEFA European Under-21 Championship in Denmark to earn his side a berth in next summer's Olympic Games. Team-mates Dmitri Baga and Pavel Nekhaychik were also on the winning side. • Marián Čišovský scored for MFK Petržalka in a 2-1 home win against FC Dinamo Minsk in the 2006/07 UEFA Cup second qualifying round – and also appeared in his team's 3-2 second-leg success at the Dinamo Stadium. • Plzeň's Martin Fillo and Daniel Kolář met BATE's Artyom Radkov and Aleksandr Pavlov when their nations met in a European U21 Championship qualifier on 6 June 2006. Kolář scored one and set up the other in a 2-1 win for the home team. • Fillo and Radkov had earlier met in a European U19 Championship qualifier in Italy in May 2004, Fillo's Czech side prevailing 3-0.

FC BATE Borisov: Viktor Goncharenko Date of birth: 10 June 1977 Nationality: Belarusian Playing career: FC RUOR Minsk, FC BATE Borisov Coaching career: FC BATE Borisov • His career as a BATE defender ended at 25 because of ruptured left knee ligaments, Goncharenko immediately switched to coaching, taking over the club's reserves and guiding them to second-placed finishes in 2005 and 2006 before graduating to become assistant to head coach Igor Kriushenko. • In 2007 he replaced Kriushenko on a temporary basis when the latter developed health problems and guided BATE to five wins in his six matches in charge. • When Kriushenko departed for FC Dinamo Minsk that November Goncharenko got his big break with the newly-crowned champions; suffered a number of key departures, but the likes of Vladimir Rzhevski, Sergei Sosnovski and Sergei Veremko proved shrewd signings. • Won the first of three successive league titles with BATE in 2008, adding a domestic double in 2010, with the coach – who won the 1999 and 2002 titles as a player – also feted as his nation's coach of the year in all three seasons. • His first year in charge also brought Goncharenko a Belarusian first in taking BATE to the 2008/09 UEFA Champions League group stage; his side were eliminated despite two draws against Juventus, but at 31, Goncharenko became the group stage's youngest ever coach. • Reached the UEFA Europa League group stage in the following two campaigns; missed the round of 32 in 2009/10 but reached knockout stages the following season.

FC Viktoria Plzeň: Pavel Vrba Date of birth: 6 December 1963 Nationality: Czech Playing career: FC Baník Ostrava (twice), TJ Železárny Prostějov, RH Cheb, TJ Baník Havířov, FC Přerov Coaching career: FC Přerov, FC Baník Ostrava (youth, assistant), Czech Republic Under-20, FK Matador Púchov, MŠK Žilina, Slovakia (assistant), FC Viktoria Plzeň • The defender was part of the Czechoslovakia side that reached the final of the 1982 UEFA European Under-18 Championship and also appeared at the FIFA U-20 World Cup the following year; the Czechs lost in the quarter-finals to a Brazil team including Bebeto and Dunga. • His club career did not hit the same highs, Vrba making a handful of appearances for Cheb and Baník before finishing his playing days in the lower leagues with hometown club Přerov. • Returned to Baník as a youth coach and also went back to the U20 World Cup, taking charge of the Czech Republic in the 2003 edition. Became assistant at Baník and, despite a 7-0 loss to SK Slavia Praha in his first match in temporary charge in May 2003, the next season ended with Baník and Vrba celebrating the league title. • That summer crossed the border into Slovakia, winning a championship as head coach of Žilina in 2007, by which time he was also working as assistant to Ján Kocián with the country’s national side. • Moved on to Plzeň in 2008, winning the Czech Cup in his second season – when he was voted the country's coach of the year – and the league in 2011. Even better followed at the start of 2011/12, Plzeň claiming the scalps of Rosenborg BK and FC København en route to reaching the UEFA Champions League group stage for the first time.

UEFA Champions League: Group stage milestones • Holders FC Barcelona have avoided becoming the first defending champions to fail to get through a group stage since the UEFA Champions League began. (This record, like the others, includes the seasons between 1999/2000 and 2002/03 that featured a second group stage). • In 1992/93, Barcelona were the reigning European Champion Clubs' Cup holders and were beaten 4-3 on aggregate in the second round by PFC CSKA Moskva. • No team has successfully defended the UEFA Champions League trophy with AC Milan (1989, 1990) the last club to win consecutive European Cups. Milan (1994, 1995), AFC Ajax (1995, 1996), Juventus (1996, 1997) and Manchester United (2008, 2009) have all returned to the UEFA Champions League final as holders only to lose. • S.S. Lazio goalkeeper Marco Ballotta became the oldest player to compete in the UEFA Champions League in 2007/08 when he featured against Olympiacos FC on matchday one at the age of 43 years and 168 days. The record was previously held by Alessandro Costacurta, the AC Milan defender who played against AEK Athens FC in 2006/07 at the age of 40 years and 211 days. Ballotta was aged 43 years 252 days when he featured against Real Madrid CF on matchday six. • Ryan Giggs is the oldest player to score in the competition, aged 37 years and 289 days, in Manchester United's 1-1 draw at SL Benfica on 14 September 2011. • Celestine Babayaro is the youngest player to have appeared in the UEFA Champions League. He was 16 years and 87 days when he started for RSC Anderlecht against FC Steaua Bucureşti on 23 November 1994. He was then sent off in the 37th minute. • Peter Ofori-Quaye is the youngest player to have scored in the UEFA Champions League, aged 17 years and 195 days. He found the net in Olympiacos's 5-1 defeat at Rosenborg BK on 1 October 1997. • Barcelona and Manchester United FC have both finished as group winners on 12 occasions, one more than Real Madrid. • Four teams have recorded six successive victories in a UEFA Champions League group stage: Milan (1992/93), Paris Saint-Germain FC (1994/95), FC Spartak Moskva (1995/96) and Barcelona (2002/03, first group stage). • Twelve teams have gone through a UEFA Champions League group stage without picking up a single point, including MŠK Žilina and FK Partizan in 2010/11. The other ten are: Maccabi Haifa FC and Debreceni VSC (2009/10), FC Dynamo Kyiv (2007/08), PFC Levski Sofia (2006/07), SK Rapid Wien (2005/06), Anderlecht (2004/05), Spartak Moskva and Bayer 04 Leverkusen (2002/03, first and second group stage respectively), Fenerbahçe SK (2001/02, first group stage) and 1. FC Košice (1997/98). • Manchester United scored 20 goals in the 1998/99 group stage, more than any other side has managed. Barcelona scored 19 times in the 1999/2000 first group stage. • MŠK Žilina conceded 19 goals in their six outings in 2010/11, equalling the record let in during a group stage set by Debrecen (2009/10), Dynamo Kyiv (2007/08) and Ferencvárosi TC in 1995/96. • No team has ever gone through a UEFA Champions League group stage without conceding a goal. Milan (1992/93), AFC Ajax (1995/96), Juventus (1996/97 and 2004/05), Chelsea FC (2005/06), Liverpool FC (2005/06), Villarreal CF (2005/06) and Manchester United (2010/11) all let in just one. • Before their 3-1 win against Sporting Clube de Portugal on matchday six of the 2006/07 campaign, Spartak Moskva went 22 games without a victory in the competition, surpassing the unwanted record set by AEK Athens FC on matchday three of the same campaign. • The lowest total for a team qualifying from the group stage is seven points. The first to do it, since three points for a win was introduced in 1995/96, were Legia Warszawa that same season before FC Dynamo Kyiv and Bayer 04 Leverkusen managed it in 1999/2000 and Liverpool in 2001/02. FC Lokomotiv Moskva and eventual finalists Juventus both progressed with seven points in 2002/03, a feat achieved by Rangers FC and SV Werder Bremen in 2005/06.
